Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 796

Chapter 796: Meeting The In-laws ( 1 )
Liu Fuyan put the bamboo basket into the woodshed, washed her face and hands, and went to get dinner. Since her aunt decided to marry her childhood sweetheart, their family now has a lot of food to eat. Even meat and vegetables are plentiful.

Now, they get to eat meat every few days. For dinner today, her mother made meat buns and vegetable stuffed buns. Although the steamed buns are made with half white flour and half coarse flour, they taste much better than before.

She saw three steamed buns in the bamboo steamer and smiled. Despite her mother’s sharp tongue, she still left a lot of food for her. She sat in the kitchen, eating dinner and thinking about how to make money.

After thinking for a long time, she gave up. She is just an 8-year-old girl who has never left the village. She has no way to make money. She should focus on studying and think about how to make money when she grows up.

Early the next morning, the train departing from the city closest to Xie Village finally arrived at the Capital Railway Station. As the sun rises over the eastern horizon, its soft rays dimly illuminate the surroundings.

Soon after the train doors opened, people started pushing their luggage off the carriage. At this time, several thieves also joined the crowd, looking for opportunities to steal money.

In the sleeper car, Li Lingyun and Pan Meijia packed their luggage and sat there with no intention of leaving.

Seeing them still sitting there leisurely, the old woman said, “Niece, Nephew, my husband and I are leaving first. If there is a fate, let’s meet again next time.”

Li Lingyun looked around and said, “Auntie, we had better wait until everyone has left before leaving.”

After hearing his words, the old woman looked towards the crowd and saw a man wearing a hat covering half of his face, slashing someone’s luggage with a small knife.

The old woman gasped when she saw him snatching someone else’s wallet. When the old woman saw the thief looking towards her direction, she quickly lowered her head and pretended to be busy packing her luggage.

Her hands shook as she felt sharp eyes on her from behind. She didn’t dare to raise her head until everyone left.

Li Lingyun stood up, carried his luggage, and said, “Auntie, you should behave normally when you are outside, so that others will not know that you have a lot of money with you. My wife and I will take our leave first. Goodbye.”

“Auntie, uncle, goodbye.” Pan Meijia nodded to them and followed her boyfriend.

After getting off the train, they went to the entrance to join the queue. They need to show their travel permit and ID to leave the train station.

When they finally finished the procedure, the sun was up and the roads were bustling with people. Since they can’t conduct private transactions, they can’t rent bikes or other transportation. So, there was no choice but to walk.

Fortunately, there are buses in the capital. Although the bus was packed with people and they could only stand very close to each other, it was still better than walking for several hours to reach the Pan family’s house.

In the crowded bus, Li Lingyun blocked other people with his arms. Pan Meijia stood between his chest and the wall, protected from other people.

They stood so close that she felt his breath brushing her cheek and heard his strong heartbeat. She lowered her head so no one noticed her rosy cheeks and bright eyes.

While she was immersed in her own world, Li Lingyun looked at her with a smile in his eyes when he noticed the tip of her ears had turned red. His girlfriend is so cute that he can’t help but fall in love with her more and more with each passing day.

It took them two hours of traveling by bus and another twenty minutes of walking to finally reach the big compound.

Pan Meijia stood outside the gate, knocked on the guard post’s window, and said, “Hello, uncle.”

Hearing the knock on the window, the guard raised his head and looked at her in surprise, “Meijia, you are back. Have you finished with the government’s program?”

“No, there are still three and half years left. This time I came back to visit my parents. I will go back in a few days,” Pan Meijia said with a smile.

The guard nodded and said, “Thank you for your hard work, Comrade.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person standing next to Pan Meijia and asked curiously, “Meijia, who is this?”

“Uncle, this is my boyfriend, Li Lingyun,” Pan Meijia introduced briefly.

“Hello, uncle,” Li Lingyun greeted him with a smile.

The next moment, the guard’s eyes lit up and he said with a smile, “So, this is the son-in-law. What a handsome man. Meijia, you have such good taste!”

After saying that, he quickly opened the gate and said, “Go back and rest. We can talk another day.”

Pan Meijia nodded and said, “Thank you, uncle.”

Li Lingyun and Pan Meijia walked side by side and met many people along the way. Although he didn’t chat with them like the guards, everyone’s eyes were focused on Li Lingyun.

At first, Pan Meijia was worried that her boyfriend would be uncomfortable. But when she looked at him, she found that he was walking while looking around curiously, as if he didn’t notice the probing eyes of the neighbors.

Because her house was located on the third floor, she said, “Brother Yan, let me help you carry some. We have to climb stairs, and you will be very tired if you carry everything by yourself.”

Before his girlfriend could take the bag away, Li Lingyun avoided her hand and said, “It’s not heavy, I can carry it.”

Thinking of her boyfriend’s arms and body muscles, Pan Meijia blushed and said, “Then tell me if you are tired. I can carry my own bag.”

“Mhmm,” Li Lingyun nodded.
